Merrimack, New Hampshire, USA — July 1, 2005 — ShutterBug 1.2, from XtraLean Software, offers
more improvements and a more streamlined user interface giving users more flexibility and control over
their online photos and web pages. Available immediately from xtralean.com, ShutterBug brings many
new features such as page centering, color and transparency options for watermarks, mouse hover tool
tips for captions, plus much more for only $34.
Some of the new features for this version include: horizontal and vertical page centering with one click
of a button, new diagonal repeating watermark for photos, color and transparency controls for
watermarks, alphabetical sorting of photos upon import, floating tool tips for captions when mouse
hovers over image, and alt tags for images. Additionally, XtraLean’s own proprietary browser lets users
preview their sites exactly the way they will display in all modern browsers on multiple platforms without
any extra hassle to the user. Improved HTML output removes the frustration associated with rendering
inconsistencies between different browsers, allowing users to focus on their content inside a smooth
workflow environment.
ShutterBug’s improved interface adds an optional "Hide/Show Tools" feature to provide more work space
in the layout window, plus saving the same window size between launches and more visual queues

HTML output, masthead will link if using a graphic and no text, improvements on error detection and
correction on exporting of websites, plus minor bug fixes.
